CARE AND MAINTENANCE
The radio system is designed for a long
operational life and therefore does not re-
quire particular maintenance. If there is
a fault, contact a
Fiat Service net-
work.
Clean the cover with a soft antistatic
cloth only. Cleaning and polishing prod-
ucts could damage the surface.
High volume can be a risk for
driver and for other people
in road traffic. The volume must
therefore always be adjusted so that
you can still hear noise from the sur-
roundings (e.g. horns, ambulance
sirens, police sirens, etc.).

The use of original CD supports is re-
quired for the best quality audio produc-
tion. Correct operation is not guaranteed
when CD-R/RW media are used that
were not correctly burned and/or with
a maximum capacity of 650 MB.WARNINGSWhen using copy-pro-
tected CDs, they may be a delay of a few
seconds before the system starts to play
them. In addition, since many new and dif-
ferent protection methods are continu-
ously being introduced, it is not possible
to guarantee that the CD player will play
any protected CD. The presence of copy
protection is often in small letters or may
be difficult to read on the cover of the ac-
tual CD and it may say something like, for
example, “COPY CONTROL”, “COPY
PROTECTED”, “THIS CD CANNOT BE
PLAYED ON A PC/MAC”, or identified
through the use of symbols, such as, for
example:In addition, protected discs often do not
display the audio disc identification sym-
bol on the discs and on their cases:
WARNINGDo not use commercially
available CD protective skins or discs with
stabilisers, etc. since they might become
jammed in the internal mechanism and
damage the disc.

WARNINGThe CD player is able to
read most of the compression systems cur-
rently on the market (e.g.:LAME, BLADE,
XING, FRAUNHOFER) but as these sys-
tems are continually evolving, playback of
all compression formats is not guaranteed.
WARNINGIf a multisession disk is
loaded, only the first session will be played.
Notes about Compact Discs
Don’t stick labels on the surface of
a Compact Disc or write on the record-
ed surface with pens or pencils.Do not use solvents such as commercially
available stain removers, antistatic sprays
or thinners to clean CDs.
Do not use CDs that are very scratched,
flawed, distorted, etc. Using discs like
these will result in malfunctions or dam-
age to the player.Do not expose CDs to direct sunlight or
any heat source.
